This list of free models directly usable in Poser or Daz Studio and available at the NASA 3D Resources website was updated on 17 February 2019. There are many other models and textures at NASA's website, some but not all of which can be used in Daz Studio or Poser after being converted from their native file formats.
These are props, not rigged figures.
